SOLSC 2018 ~ Day 19 ~ Needed
As the days get longer and our afternoons spent creating and constructing begin to consume more of the evening, I find that if I look carefully…the space I needed to create was there. Today, I watched 20 fifth grade students plan and play. Something about this little guy struck me as I passed by. Here’s […]
SOLSC 2018 ~ Day 17 ~ Nothing

Then… I remember that sharing words of forgiveness, care, concern, thoughtfulness, joy, peace, and love […]
